Beast Taming Starts from Zero

The Stone Armored Giant is currently only in its initial form; it would be an instant for an Emperor-level pet to catch up.

However, Yin Panling only followed behind from a distance of about ten meters and did not step forward to stop the stone-armored giant.

Qi Yufeng wasn't interested in the stone armor giant; she simply followed Yin Panling beside her.

Soon, Josan and Michaela caught up with Tooth and the others.

"Qingqing."

Qingbao appeared beside Qiyufeng, keeping pace with it as it looked at the gray pet beast running ahead, which resembled a stone. It exclaimed happily, expressing how wonderful it was that the pet beast egg had hatched into a pet beast. When it saw so many cracks, it thought the space explosion had caused too much damage, but thankfully the wind had not disappointed it.

It means that it was fortunate that the wind brought the pet egg up in time, otherwise the pet egg would definitely have hatched at the bottom of the cliff, and the pet that hatched would definitely not be able to run like it does now.

It's trying to take credit.

“Yinpan”.

Yin Panling called out softly, indicating that this time it was really thanks to you.

"Qingqing."

"I know it's all thanks to me! And what about my big gift?!" Qingbao pretended to put on a sheepish smile and called out, indicating that it was nothing.

Just as Qingbao was thinking about how to subtly bring up the matter of giving a generous gift, Qiao Sang sat on Tingbao's lap, came to Yin Panling's side, and said goodbye:

"Now that the Stone Armored Giant's pet egg has been successfully rescued, we'll be leaving now."

Qingbao: "!!!"

Can't leave!
Its grand gift has not yet been fulfilled!
As the thought flashed through my mind, a restless wind began to blow around me.

“Yinpan”.

Yin Pan felt the sudden gust of wind and seemed to understand something. She glanced at Qing Bao with a smile in her eyes, then looked at Qiao Sang and called out.

Don't rush off yet, I have something to give you.

As soon as he finished speaking, the restless wind around them suddenly disappeared.

"Qingqing?"

Qingbao blinked her pure eyes and called out.

what?
"Yinpan," Yinpan Ling responded.

What you need.

It seems Yin Panling hasn't forgotten what she said earlier... Since Yin Panling hasn't forgotten, then Qi Yufeng certainly won't forget either... Qiao Sang silently breathed a sigh of relief, then, remembering something, she glanced at the figure running ahead and asked:
Why didn't you catch up with the little stone man?

Little Stone Golem, the name of the race in the initial form of the Stone Golem.

Judging from Yin Panling's attitude now, it's clear that she doesn't want to catch up with the little stone man. Otherwise, with her abilities, she wouldn't even need to chase after him; she could just make a sound, and the little stone man would definitely come to her side uncontrollably, just like the little treasure hunter did back then.

“Yinpan”.

Yinpanling sighed and cried out, indicating that it had just hatched and didn't want to frighten it.

Qiao Sang then asked, "What do you think it's looking for?"

“Yinpan…”

Yin Panling looked at the figure in front of her that was both familiar and unfamiliar, and shook her head.

It doesn't know.

Although Yin Panling hadn't forgotten the grand gift, judging from this, it seemed it planned to wait until the little stone man stopped, did what it wanted, and then go up to acknowledge him, only remembering the grand gift after the happy ending... That wouldn't do; it was too much of a waste of time... Qiao Sang pondered for a moment and said:
"I think the little stone man might be looking for a water source."

Yin Panling suddenly looked over.

“Think about it, you went to the bottom of the Void Cliff in search of water,” Qiao Sang analyzed. “This is the Stone Armor Giant’s last memory, and you spent all your time together searching for water. I think water must have been very important to it.”

“Yinpan”.

Yin Panling was silent for two seconds, then called out, indicating that what you said made sense.

After saying that, it looked at Qi Yufeng, who had been following closely beside it, and called out:
“Yinpan”.

Seeing that Yin Panling had taken the initiative to talk to her, Qi Yufeng was flattered and quickly nodded and called out:
"Pray for rain!"

Then, it suddenly transformed into a streak of blue light, soared into the sky, spread its wings under the blazing sun, and roared:
"Pray for rain!!!"

Suddenly, dark clouds gathered.

"Wow~"

A heavy rain began to fall, drenching the entire Asuka Island.

The streets, trees, and houses were quickly soaked by the rain. People and animals stopped walking and let the rain soak them, watching with surprise as the heavy rain fell from the sky.

Even though we are not currently in a severe drought, rain is a rare weather phenomenon.

Soundbird Valley.

The little stone figure felt the rain falling on it, paused for a moment, and suddenly stopped. It stiffly raised its head, staring blankly at the rain pouring down from the sky.

"Stone!"

The little stone man's eyes suddenly turned red, and it let out an excited cry, opening its mouth to drink the falling rainwater.

"Searching..."

Little Treasure Hunting unleashed a transparent barrier, shielding himself, his beast tamer, and Brother Tooth Treasure.

It doesn't like getting rained on...

"Praying for rain."

Qi Yu Feng Fei returned to Yin Pan Ling's side and called out as if to claim credit.

Yin Panling ignored it and focused all her attention on the little stone figure not far away.

It finally stopped... Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and said, "I think now is the time for you to go up and reveal your identity."

Yin Panling glanced at Qiao Sang, then flapped her wings and came to the little stone man.

The little stone man sensed the enormous shadow before him and looked ahead.

“Yinpan…”

Yin Panling took a deep breath and called out in an extremely gentle tone.

"Shishi?!"

The little stone man paused for a moment, then looked surprised and cried out.

“Yinpan”.

Yin Panling nodded, tears welling in her eyes.

"Shishi..."

Tears also welled up in the little stone man's eyes.

Against the backdrop of torrential rain, two figures, one tall and one short, gaze at each other, both with tears in their eyes, creating a particularly poignant scene.

"Searching..."

Little Treasure listened to their conversation, a touching expression on its face. It pulled out a tissue from somewhere and wiped away the tears that hadn't yet fallen from the corners of its eyes.

Suddenly, it had an idea. Its eyes lit up, and it took out its phone to start a live stream to Yin Panling and the little stone man, providing narration and telling them their backstory:
"Looking around~"

"Looking around~"

"Searching..."

As expected, the number of viewers in the live stream surged.

Seeing this, Xiao Xunbao's eyes lit up even more, and he embellished the story with even more enthusiasm.

"Praying for rain."

Qi Yufeng flew to Yin Panling's side.

The number of viewers surged again, with everyone asking who the streamer was, as he was able to film such pet beasts as Qi Yufeng and Yin Panling.

"Looking around~"

Little Treasure Hunter stood tall and proud, calling out to indicate that he was no special being and that his name was Little Treasure Hunter.

Qiao Sang glanced at it with amusement.

About ten minutes later, the heavy rain stopped, and Yin Panling and the little stone man finally finished catching up and flew over, flapping their wings.

"Xunxun~" Little Xunbao quickly said goodbye, turned off the live stream, and looked intently at Qi Yufeng who was following Yin Panling.

"Stone."

The little stone man stood on Yin Panling's shoulder, bowed, and called out gratefully.

Its expression was calm, not at all like a cub that had just hatched from a pet egg. "No need to thank me," Qiao Sang said with a smile, "Yin Panling has already given me enough compensation."

When asked about the reward, Yin Panling called out, "Yin Pan."

This means you'll have to wait a moment.

After saying that, it cried out to the sky:
“Yinpan”.

Its sound was not loud, and it was no different from usual.

Five minutes later, a harpy bird landed carrying a pink berry.

“Yinpan”.

Yin Panling cried out, indicating that this was the great gift she was giving to him.

This is... Josan took the tree fruit from the beak of the Soundbird.

"Only one tree fruit?" Qingbao recalled the tree fruit that had been placed in front of Gangbao, which looked like a small mountain, and almost lost control of his facial expression.

At the same time, a sudden, violent wind arose around them.

“Yinpan”.

Yinpanling sensed the surrounding wind without changing its expression, and let out a cry, indicating that it did not know the specific function of the tree fruit, but many fairy-type pets that came to our Yinbird Valley had fought for it, so it must be very useful.

You don't even know what this is... Qingbao continued blowing.

At this moment, Michaela said, "This is the Demon Fruit."

Qiao Sang was shocked: "Demon Fruit?!"

Seeing his beast tamer's expression, Qingbao immediately knew that the tree fruit was a good thing. The wind around him unconsciously stopped, and he showed a curious expression, calling out:
"Qingqing?"

What is the Demon Fruit?
“It’s a tree fruit that can evolve into a new skill based on its existing skills.” Qiao Sang took a deep breath and said, “And this new skill will definitely be of a higher level than the original skill.”

"Qingqing?"

Qingbao looked puzzled and called out.

What do you mean?
"It means that if you have a mid-level skill like Wind Blowing, after consuming the Demon Fruit, you will have a 100% chance of awakening a high-level skill that is an advancement based on it," Qiao Sang said, word by word. "For example, Storm."

"Qingqing?"

Qingbao digested the information for a moment, then showed a look of sudden realization. Immediately afterward, it seemed to remember something and let out a cry.

Can I decide for myself what skills to use as a foundation for advancement?

“How could that be?” Qiao Sang laughed. “It’s random. If you could decide that yourself, wouldn’t all the pets that take the Demon Fruit have super-level skills? There would definitely be a bunch of fairy-type pets with divine skills by now.”

The Fairy Fruit is hailed as one of the ten rarest fairy-type tree fruits. In addition to its low yield, its effects make it highly coveted by all beast tamers and fairy-type pets.

That is, you can directly upgrade a new skill to a higher level based on one of your existing skills.

There was a case where a high-level fairy-type pet awakened a super-tier skill after consuming a Fairy Fruit.

The moment this news spread, all beast tamers and fairy-type pets went crazy.

Those pets that can learn super-level skills are all top-tier pets, but just because of a tree fruit, a high-level fairy-type pet has awakened a super-level skill. In their eyes, this is simply a divine fruit.

Qingbao has many high-level skills, and there is a high probability that it can be upgraded to a super-level skill based on its skills.

The thought that Qingbao might have an extra super-level skill made Qiao Sang quite excited.

In her eyes, this was far more valuable than any Hundred Wind Fruit or Fairy Silk.

Energy can be rapidly increased through battles or by absorbing various other resources.

But the only resource that can randomly advance a skill to a higher level than the original skill by consuming it, without considering the pet's talent, is the Fairy-type ...
"Qingqing."

Qingbao also understood the preciousness of this tree fruit, and with a sweet expression, she called out to Yinpanling.

Qiao Sang looked at Yin Panling and said earnestly, "Thank you."

“Yinpan”.

Yin Panling smiled and called out, indicating that she was glad they liked the gift and that they could come to Yin Niao Valley to visit sometime in the future.

After saying this, he flapped his wings and flew into the sky with the little stone man.

"Praying for rain."

Qi Yufeng cried out, flapped its wings, and quickly followed.

Seeing this, Little Treasure Hunter panicked and shouted:
"Search!"

My big gift!
"Pray for rain!"

Qi Yufeng responded with a single word without turning her head.

I'll send it to you in a couple of days!
"Searching..."

Seeing that the other party had said that, Little Treasure Hunter had no choice but to stop his impulse to teleport and chase after them.

"Grind."

The Dragon King stepped forward and called out, indicating that you shouldn't blindly believe this guy's words. This guy is brainless; he might forget what he said today by tomorrow.

"Search?"

Little Treasure was stunned for a moment, then gave me a "don't scare me" look and cried out.

"Grind."

The Dragon King looked at it and called out, indicating that he had known it before.

"Search?"

Little Treasure Hunter looked surprised and exclaimed.

You two knew each other before? Then why haven't you spoken to each other even though you've lived together for so long?
Dragon King: "..."

"Have you forgotten? When we first came here, it was Dragon King who contacted Qi Yufeng first, and that's how we located her," Qiao Sang reminded her.

"Searching..."

Little Treasure showed a "I remember now" expression, then knelt on Tingbao's body, looking deeply shocked.

Then its grand gift is gone...

It recalled the scene of how Qi Yufeng ruthlessly hung up on the Dragon King's phone.

"It's alright," Qiao Sang comforted her. "If Qi Yufeng doesn't give it to you, I'll prepare one for you later."

"Searching..."

Little Treasure Hunter still looked deeply devastated.

This is completely different. If you were to spend money to buy it for me, and Qi Yufeng gave it to me, then I'd be the one making a profit...

“I’ll buy you a new screen,” Qiao Sang said.

"Search?"

Little Treasure Hunter perked up immediately, floated up, and couldn't wait to shout, "Really?"
Qiao Sang smiled and said, "Of course it's true."

Little Treasure Hunt played a crucial role in successfully obtaining the pet egg this time. Let alone a phone screen, I wouldn't mind sending it to the school's official website and using points to exchange for things it likes.

"Looking around~"

Little Treasure Hunter was overjoyed and floated around his Beastmaster again and again.

"Keep this safe for now." Qiao Sang handed over the Demon Fruit.

"Looking around~"

Little Treasure Hunter stopped what he was doing, took off the ring, and found a good spot to put the Demon Fruit inside.

Michaela watched this scene with a complicated expression, showing no sign of happiness.

Jossan keenly noticed the complex expression on Michaela's face and asked:
"What's wrong, teacher? This is a Demon Fruit! Aren't you happy about it?"

Just as Michael was about to answer, the Dragon King waved his claws and called out, "Grind."

She couldn't be happy at all.

Qiao Sang paused for a moment, then asked, "Why?"

"Investigate further."

"Investigate further."

This time, the answer came from Jiu Bu Gu. It appeared and called out twice.

We once spent a great deal of effort obtaining a Demon Fruit for the Fate Spirit to consume, but it only awakened a mid-level skill. (End of Chapter)
